A unique opportunity for research careers in Science & Technology CSIR-Central Scientific Instruments Organisation (CSIR-CSIO), Chandigarh, a premier Institute under the Council of Scientific & Industrial Research (CSIR), is involved in multidisciplinary R&D programmes of both basic and applied nature across scientific disciplines with emphasis on measurement science and instrumentation technologies. The organisation is devoted to R&D activities in the areas of Agri Instrumentation, Biomedical Instrumentation, Optical Devices & Systems, Geoscientific Instrumentation, Precision Mechanical Systems, Analytical Techniques and R&D Support Facilities, Computational Instrumentation, etc. CSIR-CSIO is in the process of recruitment of Scientists/ Senior Scientists to undertake the design & development of scientific and industrial instruments covering above mentioned areas and manage projects, intellectual outputs, technology transfers and information systems. Applications are invited from enthusiastic Indian Nationals having excellent academic record and proven scientific achievements along with the requisite experience and a high degree of motivation to take up research as a career in the field of measurement sciences and instrumentation technologies to fill up the vacancies of following posts of Scientist/Senior Scientist at Chandigarh as well as its Service & Maintenance (S&M) Centres at New Delhi and Chennai as per the details given below. The emoluments and age limits for various posts as per norms are summarized here under:

While finding engineers and machinists with micro-manufacturing skills, there is definitely a skill gap in micro-manufacturing throughout the world. It is a global issue. Research work in the field of MEMS and Microfluidics also get delayed due to the lack of manpower with the knowledge and skills in the area of Micro-manufacturing. Since the investment cost for micro-machining processes and maintenance cost of clean room facilities are very expensive, only very few Institutions like IITs have the full-pledged facilities for micro-machining technology. We have also developed very important micro fabrication facilities at this centre under various sponsored projects. Participating in this internship will surely be a very good opportunity.

HTIC is conducting the 4th International Fellowship on Health Technology Assessment (HTA) from 28th July to 2nd August, 2014. We would like to invite participation from faculty and students of your organisation for this fellowship program.

The Department of BioMedical Engineering, SRM University, Chennai, has organized a series of ‘BIOYANTRA’ a National Level Technical Event in the yester years. In this year, it is organized with the theme: “National Symposium on Medical Devices” in association with Philips Healthcare India Ltd & Consortium of Biomedical Engineers. This Symposium emphasizes on the interaction of Medical Industry professional with the young biomedical engineering students. Often it is a big problem for employment in the medical industry for fresher due to the lack of knowledge about the modern medical devices in the market and its technology. As we know that health related problems are increasing day by day. This increases the demand of health care services. In order to reduce the healthcare related problems, first we have to identify the diseases in its early stage and give the treatment for curing the disease. For that, innovation is required in the biomedical field, that is, low cost medical equipment which is affordable for the common man should be the main goal and mantra of a biomedical engineer. To bring this dream into reality, both doctors and medical industry should interact with biomedical engineering students to share their experiences, problems and knowledge in order to create a better world by giving better healthcare services for the patients. Hence, this event is an attempt to create new innovative product in future by sharing the past and present experience of medical industry professionals with the young biomedical engineers.
